The editors of Rock & Sling believe that the act of writing and of reading literature is a way of witnessing to the truth of experience, drilling down to the core of language's vitality, and accepting an understanding of artistic language as a kind of testimony. The word "Witness" means to testify: to tell the truth. The demands of the word are bracing in its charge to the writer to understand that his and her work matters not just as expressions of experiences and responses but as an active language engaged morally as well as aesthetically. To tell the truth is an act of responsibility as well as an expression of hope. To testify is an act of responsibility as well as an expression of faith.
Rock & Sling is a literary journal of witness, published twice a year at Whitworth University in Spokane, Washington. Rock & Sling was founded in 2004 by Susan Cowger, and came to Whitworth in 2010. We are a member of the CLMP and distributed nationwide by Ubiquity Distribution.
Editorial Staff:
- Editor-in-chief: Thom Caraway
Thom is an associate professor in the English department at Whitworth and teaches a variety of creative writing, literature, and publishing and editing courses. His poems have appeared in Ascent, Redivider, Smartish Pace, Sugar House Review, and elsewhere. His books include A Visitor's Guide to North Dakota and No Secrets to Sell.
The work I prefer rarely takes a single form. It is often work that blurs traditional lines, either culturally or structurally. I want the magazine to embrace complexity, to be afraid of nothing, to push our understanding of ourselves and the ways we think about literature. I like art that takes risks, but still remembers to be good art. I realize this is vague, so let me provide a couple of my favorite lines:
"Suddenly I realize / that if I stepped out of my body I would break / into blossom" James Wright, "A Blessing."
"The soul's growlspeak / is strange- // prisoned / in foot-arch // in laurels" Carly Joy Miller, "apostle drives the coastline" (Rock & Sling issue 9.2, 2014).
"If the locomotive of the Lord runs us down, / we should give thanks that the end had magnitude" Jack Gilbert, "A Brief for the Defense."
- Poetry Editor: Laurie Lamon
Laurie has lived in the Pacific Northwest and taught poetry workshops and literature seminars at Whitworth since 1985 (where she is a professor in English and the Amy M. Ryan Endowed Professor of the Liberal Arts). She received her doctorate from the University of Utah and her MFA from the University of Montana. Her poems have appeared in many journals and magazines, including The Atlantic Monthly, The New Republic, Ploughshares, Colorado Review, Arts & Letters Journal of Contemporary Culture, Primavera, and Poetry Northwest. She is the recipient of a Washington State Artist Trust Award in 2005, a Graves Award in 2002, and a Pushcart Prize in 2001 for the poem "Pain Thinks of the Beautiful Table." Her books include The Fork Without Hunger and Without Wings, both published by CavanKerry Press.
- Assistant Poetry Editor: Lauren Klepinger
Lauren did not discover the range and possibilities of contemporary poetry until she was roped into Rock & Sling as a sophomore. She is now a senior looking forward to a potential career in publishing, using her skills from both Rock & Sling and her internship with The Masters Review. Aside from poetry editing, Lauren enjoys both reading and writing sci-fi and fantasy, and will absolutely debate you over the merits of genre fiction. When not at school, she can be found exploring local restaurants, swing dancing, writing at coffee shops (but drinking tea, not coffee), and collecting film scores. Among Lauren's literary favorites are The Book Thief, Ender's Game, Frankenstein, The Invisible Man, Peter Pan, and The Giver.
- Nonfiction Editor: Julie Riddle
Julie is senior development writer at Whitworth University and editor of Whitworth Today magazine. She also serves as the craft-essay editor for Brevity. She is the author of a memoir, The Solace of Stones: Finding a Way through Wilderness (University of Nebraska Press). Her essay, "Shadow Animals," appeared in The Georgia Review (the essay received a Special Mention in The Pushcart Prize XXXIX: Best of the Small Presses and was nominated for a National Magazine Award). She holds an MFA from the Rainier Writing Workshop at Pacific Lutheran University.
I love being part of the Rock & Sling crew as the journal's creative-nonfiction editor. A great day is when I read a submitted essay that surprises me with fresh language and an assured voice, and that seeks to deepen a question rather than simply answer the question, and does so with honesty and authenticity.
- Fiction Editor: Caitlin Wheeler
Caitlin Wheeler is a Whitworth graduate and holds her MFA in fiction from Eastern Washington University, where she managed the university press, Willow Springs Books. She looks for stories that are provocative, lyrical, and entertaining, and which acknowledge both mystery and truth. Stories that meaningfully engage with societal or literary assumptions and structures without falling back on didacticism or easy answers are likely to catch her eye.
- Assistant Fiction Editor: Meghan Foulk
Meghan is a junior studying Communications at Whitworth University with minors in English, Editing and Publishing, and Women's and Gender Studies. She also works at the campus library, which is no surprise to her friends and family. Meghan's love of reading skyrocketed after discovering the sci-fi and fantasy genres, particularly The Hobbit. She also dabbles in art and design, with experience in designing t-shirts, graphics, and painting murals. Her free time is usually consumed by coffee and debating the next season of Game of Thrones or getting emotional about Star Wars.
- Web Editor: Jenn Rudsit
Jennifer is a Whitworth English Department grad, where she was involved with Rock & Sling as an Editorial Assistant. She holds a Certificate of Publishing from the University of Denver Publishing Institute and is currently an Administrative Assistant/Associate Registrar at Pacific Northwest Ballet. Her current reading obsessions include historical fiction, angsty Christian memoirs, and rereading books she read in middle school. When she is not reading she enjoys watching dance choreographed to poetry, exploring Seattle's various parks, and venturing into the world of bookstagram.
- Managing Editor: Karly Bosma
Karly is the Program Assistant for the English Department at Whitworth University, where she exists as the only "math brain" in the department. Surrounded by eccentric literary enthusiasts, she enjoys being the method to the madness that goes into Rock & Sling. When she's not creating order out of chaos at work, she fixes up her new house with her husband, paints for family and friends, and tries to find new ways to enjoy dairy-free chocolate (a challenging but crucial endeavor).
- Assistant Managing Editor: Alexis Paperman
Alexis is a senior at Whitworth University with a major in English, and minors in Sociology, Women's and Gender Studies, and Editing & Publishing. She only recently discovered the all-consuming world of little magazines. Since this discovery, Alexis has enjoyed seeing the trends lit mags have been a part of. When not obsessively recording the linear history of little magazines, Alexis can typically be found in a library hoping to discover obscure facts or pop culture references. Two of her favorite books she has recently discovered in the library are Bad Clowns by Benjamin Radford and Eminent Outlaws by Christopher Bram.
For questions, email Karly at kbosma [at] whitworth [dot] edu.

Just a question: Would you accept reprints from older literary journals if acknowledgments were in order?

Hi. A month ago I subscribed to Rock And Sling. I'm so excited! I can hardly wait for my first copy! Will it come soon?

I believe you found my submission "Bottled Water" to be not a good match for your publication. However your automated submission manager fails to indicate same.
Winn Pasq / Aug 27 2011 11:07 am
I see you have a place to "subscribe," but I'd really like to buy a couple of copies of the last journal. How do I go about ordering copies?
Jenne / Nov 17 2011 5:46 pm
Hi Thom: How do we go about changing addresses for current subscribers? I think I forgot to do that and may have missed the last issue…
Bonnie Thurston / Apr 29 2012 7:32 am
This is a question for the editors: do I have to be on Facebook to submit poetry? I don't like Facebook. I'm old and private. Is the account I sign up for on the site just for you for submission purposes, or is it a sign in to the "f word?" thank, Bonnie Thurston
Mia Brech / May 2 2012 5:57 am
Hi. On April 1, 2012 I ordered and paid for a copy of Rock & Sling. I still haven't gotten it. Sorry to post this publicly, but I didn't know how else to contact you. Would really like to receive the journal!
Sharron Singleton / May 17 2012 1:36 pm
On 5/5/12 I submitted 5 poems for your consideration. I just heard this morning that "For All That Is" and "Elected Silence, Sing to Me" have been accepted for publication. The other three are still available. They are, "This Long Novitiate," "The World Will Be Saved by Beauty," and "Seed."
Thank you, Sharron Singleton
Sharron Singleton / May 31 2012 12:19 pm
Oh, I went through your on-line submission manager but must have done something wrong. I'll try again. Thanks for letting me know. Sharron Singleton

I've written a blank-verse narrative poem of 189 lines–too long to submit for your consideration?
stacy barton / Oct 2 2012 6:29 pm
Hi Thom:
I was just wondering about the status of my 5/1/12 short story submission – I accidentally submitted two, "In the Colony" and "The Coin," and I wasn't sure if that caused a problem.
Thanks for your time,
Stacy Barton
Richard King Perkins II / Feb 7 2013 10:12 am
My poems "Abstract Child," "Harrowed in the Dusk" and "Splashdown" have been accepted elsewhere. The poems "Wasteland Ballad" and "Claim" are still available. Thank you.

Dennis R. Gillenwater / Feb 27 2013 10:31 am
I just finished an essay written in the spirit of Jonathan Swift's "A Modest Proposal" but with a decidedly contemporary subject matter. Would you be interested in reading it? If so, what genre should I send it under?
"A Modest Proposal in This Post-Modern Age of Civility and Progressive Pragmatism for Preventing the Offspring Products of Rape and Incest from Destroying America"

What is your usual response time for fiction?
Lori Vos / Nov 19 2016 12:43 pm
Dear Laurie,
I submitted five poems earlier this fall. However, recently I gave a public reading of two of them and realized that one needed some revision. Would you receive from me an edited version of "Near Pickering or An Ode to Lake Ontario"? If so, please let me know how I should send it to you.
All the best,

Hi! I submitted a fiction piece the beginning of November. I haven't received anything back on it. I was wondering how long it takes to get feedback?
David Hall / Jan 3 2017 8:51 am
Hello and Happy New Year. I understand this public forum isn't the most professional way to inquire about a submission, but I couldn't find another link or way to contact you. My poem "In Praise of the Black Ghostbuster" was submitted on 8/5/2016. and I wondering if it is still under consideration with your publication. Be blessed.
Rm / Mar 18 2017 7:35 pm
Hello. I don't know how else to inquire about my submissions. I submitted two poems on 8.25.16. They were "Fourth of July, 1998" and "First Day Out." Just wondering if you've made a decision. Thanks so much.
Will McCabe / Apr 6 2017 10:41 am
Sorry, I was not sure how else to make contact, but I noticed on Submittable that my piece "Philosophy on Ornithology" has been labeled "In-Progress" for several months now and have not yet heard back on it. My other works "Mixed Blessing" and "Apology" have also been "Received" for the same time as well. Just wanted to know about the current status of these poems.
Thank you,
Will McCabe
Juned Subhan / Aug 21 2017 7:18 am
Dear Editors,
I submitted a trio of poems entitled 'Birdsong I, Birdsong II and Birdsong III' to Rock and Sling Magazine and last year on the 4th November 2016, I received the email reply below (from Professor Thomas Caraway) regarding my submission which I replied to directly and via Submittable. The submission is still showing as 'in-progress' in Submittable and in my reply, I stated that I would be more than happy for Rock and Sling to accept Birdsong III as a standalone poem for inclusion in the journal.
However, I have not as of yet received an update. Please could you inform me if you would still be happy to include Birdsong III in a future edition of Rock and Sling (as indicated by the editorial feedback below).
I look forward to hearing from you soon.
Kind regards,
Juned Subhan (Mr).
Gretchen LaSalle / Nov 27 2017 11:55 am
Dear Poetry Editors,
I am having difficulty finding another way to contact you. I hope this is an acceptable way to inquire about submissions. I posted two submissions on October 22nd ("Early I Rise" and "Of Darker Days") and haven't heard anything back yet. This is the first time I've submitted anything to a print publication so perhaps this is typical. If you could let me know what a reasonable time frame is for acceptance or denial of submissions, I would be most appreciative!

Dear poetry editors,
I was unable to figure out on your submission page how to withdraw a single poem in a submission, so I apologize if this method of contacting you is inappropriate, but I have just had one of the five poems in my current submission, "Vinegar," accepted by another journal and will need to withdraw it from your consideration.I hope you will continue to consider the remaining four poems.
Thank you.

My understanding of the way performance and rewards work is as follows. Performance deserves reward, commensurate to achievement and based on established norms. The organisation enables performance through provision of resources and infrastructure, while the performer provides sweat and talent – knowledge & skills – towards attaining success.

Minnie Van Review & Tips
Minnie Vans are a new private vehicle service at Walt Disney World, operated in the same manner as Uber or Lyft, except operated by Cast Members in cute vehicles reminiscent of Minnie Mouse. In this post, we'll share our experiences using the Minnie Vans, whether we recommend them, and tips for making the most of Minnie Vans. (Last updated May 8, 2018.)
After an initial test/preview period, Minnie Vans are now being rolled out around Walt Disney World. The vehicles can be requested at every resort via the Lyft app (except for the All Stars), and it would seem that Disney is making a significant investment in the program's future, adding more vans (well, SUVs) to the fleet. It also seems that this will be the main 'priority' transportation option going forward, as Walt Disney World has discontinued Express Transportation.
I have to admit, when the Minnie Vans were first announced, and their initial price was released, I didn't have much interest. At $20 per ride (UPDATE: the price has now increased to $25/ride), Minnie Vans cost approximately double the price of an average Lyft or Uber ride. After using the Minnie Vans on a recent trip to Walt Disney World, I have to say, my mind has changed…
Even before using Minnie Vans myself, I knew Minnie Vans would be useful for those who still currently use taxis. As I've learned from reader comments to our Tips for Using Lyft & Uber at Walt Disney World post, there are many people who are distrustful of these ride-sharing services. There are a variety of reasons for this; some valid, others based on anecdotal fear-mongering (if you think taxis are safe, I have a documentary for you to watch). Regardless of the logic of the rationales, that's how it is.
As of May 2018, Minnie Vans are now available at every Walt Disney World resort hotel, except for the three All Star Resorts. We believe this is the full and final roll-out, and that there are not currently plans to offer Minnie Vans at those three Value Resorts, at least as of right now.
In addition to transportation within Walt Disney World, Minnie Vans are now also available to Orlando International Airport. The service is offered to guests with airline flight departures out of MCO between 9 a.m. and midnight. For a flat rate fee of $150 (!!!) per trip, airport Minnie Vans can accommodate up to 6 people per vehicle, including up to three car seats for guests. Guests wanting to request a Minnie Van to get to MCO are advised to use their hotel's Resort Airline Check-In for additional information. (For what it's worth, we regularly use Uber/Lyft to get to MCO, and our cost rarely exceeds $20/trip.)
When it comes to Minnie Vans versus taxis, there is no comparison. Minnie Vans are (on average) cheaper, offer better service, are more reliable, and more comfortable. There are also accessible Minnie Vans, which is a huge selling point for those who might otherwise have challenges using other services, be it taxis or ride-sharing services.
With Uber or Lyft versus Minnie Vans, it's a much closer call. On average, Minnie Vans are more expensive. Not quite double the cost, but close to it. If price is your bottom line, you should probably stick with those ride-sharing services most of the time.
There are a few scenarios when Minnie Vans will be cheaper, such as when going from Animal Kingdom Lodge to Magic Kingdom with a party of 5 or more or when the ride-sharing services have higher pricing. Even though Uber no longer shows explicit 'surge' pricing, it's still higher post-fireworks and other high demand times. Minnie Van pricing is static, not demand-dependent.
For families, it's also noteworthy that car seats do not incur an additional fee with Minnie Vans. Tipping is a trickier topic here. When Minnie Vans launched, there was no tipping (Cast Members would decline tips). At some point in early 2018, the internal classification for these Cast Member roles changed to tipped positions. We've heard stories of Cast Members accepting tips and declining tips…your mileage may vary.
However, price is not what makes Minnie Vans a closer call as compared to Uber/Lyft. Instead, it's the caliber of the service Cast Members offer. In the past, I've praised Uber and Lyft for offering better service than taxis. I think that's definitely true, but those ride-sharing services can still be hit or miss.
Uber and Lyft drivers usually engage in polite conversation, and the vast majority of the time this is either interesting or enjoyable. About 10% of the time, I'd say it's uncomfortable or mildly irritating. Some of our most "notable" experiences with Uber in Florida have been a driver explaining to us how awful California is after we told him that's we live, the nitty-gritty lowdown on a driver's child custody dispute, and almost any time a driver brings up politics. (Made-up Walt Disney World trivia is another common one that might bug some people, but I legitimately love hearing stuff like that. So much creativity out there!)
Again, this is a small minority of the time we use Uber or Lyft, with most rides being pleasant or uneventful. In deference to the drivers, they are not professional conversationalists (whatever that means) and not trained in the art of polite conversation. Many are driving as side gigs, and it wouldn't surprise me if in the culture of their normal workplace, the topics they bring up are perfectly normal.
Every Minnie Van ride is like the very best Uber experience. If our encounters with drivers thus far are any indication, these are the creme de la creme of Cast Members, of a similar caliber to those you'd have on a VIP tour or when dealing with Guest Services. One of our drivers also worked in entertainment, which was unsurprising given her friendliness and affability.
I strongly suspect the drivers for the initial rollout of Minnie Vans were cherry-picked, and the result is like a mini-VIP tour during your ride (no joke!). The dynamic of this type of intimate interaction with a Cast Member is great, and is a reminder of just how much of the Walt Disney World experience is built upon the exemplary qualities of Cast Members. (I could honestly see Walt Disney World trying to use the Minnie Vans as a way to pique curiosity about private tours in the future.)
As the Minnie Van program is still being rolled out across Walt Disney World, one question we have is whether it can maintain this high degree of service as it's scaled. Right now, the Minnie Van fleet is still small and has the feel of an upstart program. Cast Members are clearly proud to be a part of the nascent program, and the guest experience is seriously good as a result.
I'm optimistic that this can remain the case. The price point is going to make it prohibitive for the majority of guests who will elect to either use the free bus (or other) transportation, or opt to save money with Uber or Lyft. Unless those ride-sharing apps are banned from Walt Disney World (unlikely given that they've partnered with Lyft on this, and banning only Uber would run afoul of the FTC Act), there's only so big the Minnie Van program can get. Keeping it relatively small-scale will prevent the type of quality-erosion that would inevitably occur if the service becomes bloated.
Alright, now let's cover some tips and info about the Minnie Vans. The vehicles used as Minnie Vans are brand-new Chevy Traverse mid-size SUVs. (Plus other Chevrolet vans for guests with wheelchairs or ECVs.) One nice perk worth mentioning is that these cars feature USB charging ports.
Minnie Vans can seat up to 6 guests, versus the 4 people that can be seated in the lowest tier of Uber or Lyft vehicles. Definitely a selling point for guests with larger parties, and factor to consider if 'doing the math' comparing the services.
As of right now, Minnie Vans have been rolled out to all Deluxe Resorts at Walt Disney World. We also were able to request a Minnie Van at Coronado Springs, so you might have luck with a pickup beyond the "official" resorts.
To use the service, you need to have the Lyft app on your smartphone (Minnie Vans are "powered by Lyft). From there, you either need to visit the front desk of your resort to have the Minnie Van service activated within the app, or activate it yourself via My Disney Experience.
We did the latter upon seeing a pop-up notification in the app. This did not occur on the first day of our trip, so it's unclear how that's triggered. (It's worth re-iterating that the Minnie Van program is still in its initial roll-out stage, and a lot of this is going to change as the program evolves over time.)
Once activated, you can use the Lyft app to request a Minnie Van pick-up. It works the same way as the standard Lyft or Uber experience, with available vehicles being shown on the map, and time/price estimates being given. The 'estimate' for Minnie Vans is meaningless–the service is a flat-rate $25 fee. (You can get free ride credits on Lyft via this link.)
In terms of logistics, Minnie Vans are nearly identical to Uber and Lyft. You are picked up and dropped off at designated locations identified in the app(s), albeit with some differences between Minnie Vans and the "traditional" ride-sharing companies.
The most notable of these is that Magic Kingdom drop-offs actually take you to Magic Kingdom instead of the Ticket & Transportation Center. In the past, we've recommend guests heading to Magic Kingdom be dropped off at the Contemporary and walk to Magic Kingdom. This obviates the need for such a 'hack.'
There are other situations where the Minnie Van drop-off point offers a distinct advantage. If you're going to Hoop Dee Doo Musical Revue or Trail's End at Fort Wilderness, you will be dropped off at Pioneer Hall (no internal bus system!). At Disney Springs, there are drop-off points beyond those for Uber and Lyft.
There are other quirks to the pick-up and drop-off locations, but those are the significant ones (to our knowledge) on Walt Disney World property. Beyond that, there is one restriction with Minnie Vans: drivers can only take you to on-property locations, and the service only operates between 6:30 a.m. and 12:30 a.m. That means you'll need to stick with Uber or Lyft when visiting Universal or the Waffle House on Vineland at 2 a.m.
In terms of efficiency, it's too early to tell. There were several times when a Minnie Van was simply parked in front of our resort, and pick-up was (or could have been) immediate. At Coronado, our wait was under 5 minutes. In a few situations, no vehicle was available at all.
Right now, average wait times (ignoring the no availability instances) are shorter than Uber or Lyft averages in Orlando–and both services are incredibly efficient in Orlando. However, the Minnie Van program is still in its infancy. Aside from super-fans who read the Disney Parks Blog or third party blogs, this is something that has not been promoted by Walt Disney World. The true test of wait times will be once the service has fully rolled out, and when (if?) it's promoted heavily to the general public.
Overall, the Minnie Vans score very high marks from us. To be frank, we used them for the sake of writing a review, and but for that, we would have never considered Minnie Vans for personal use. We are more "bottom line price" type of people, so Minnie Vans did not seem targeted at us. After using Minnie Vans at Walt Disney World, we not only see some value in this for our personal use, but also an air of light-luxury that justifies them over Uber or the buses. This is especially true on longer routes, or at the end of a long day when we don't feel like rolling the dice on a potentially uncomfortable conversation and just want high-quality Disney Cast Member service.
Due to the cost, we will never use Minnie Vans as an exclusive form of transportation. Instead, we will integrate Minnie Vans into our rotation of ride-sharing services, buses, monorails, and other Disney transportation, using whatever the situation might warrant. In terms of Uber/Lyft v. Minnie Vans, we'll probably use the former ~75% of the time. For an early-morning ADR, when we're in a hurry, transferring resorts, or in other point-to-point situations, Minnie Vans can be a great choice.

Iran refuses plane carrying Iraqi lawmakerOctober 7th, 2008 - 6:09 am ICT by IANS
Baghdad, Oct 7 (Xinhua) Iran has refused the landing of a plane carrying Iraqi parliament speaker on its territory citing a technical problem at the airport, media reports said Monday. Iran's embassy in Baghdad said in a statement that Mahmoud al-Mashhadani's plane was refused to land at the Tehran Airport because there was a technical problem there.
Iraqi media has reported that Mashhadani was on a one-day visit to Iran. He is scheduled to head to Syria Tuesday to attend the Arab Inter-Parliamentary Union meeting, reports said.
Iran's Ambassador to Iraq Hassan Kazemi Qomi later apologised for the incident.

I just wanted to send a quick note letting you know how excellent my experience was with Open Road's Service Department today. I first came in to Open Road to get an oil change and an inspection for my 2007 Infiniti FX35 that I had recently purchased. Jared assisted me with the initial oil change, and informed me that my FX did not have the DTRL installed. After speaking with him, he was very helpful and let me know that I should contact the dealership that I purchased my car from and let them know that the DTRL were not installed and that it is their responsibility to ensure it had all proper legal specifications before it was sold. After speaking with them, they agreed to cover the costs for you to install the DTRL. When I booked my appointment I let Jared know that I would like to have the transmission fluid and brake fluid flushed as well. Jared was more than helpful and went out of his way to make sure that I was completely satisfied with every aspect of the process. I booked my appointment yesterday afternoon, and had the DTRL installed, and both fluid flushes completed by 1:30pm today. I haven't had many pleasant experiences dealing with dealerships, or service departments, which is why I thought I would take the time to let you know that Jared is a phenomenal employee, and the whole process was a pleasure - which is very rare when dealing with automotive issues. Just wanted to say thanks again, and without hesitation I will be back the next time my Infiniti needs servicing.

Major topics include: immigration, political economy, class, the politics of ethnic identity creation and maintenance, the construction of race, gender, sexuality, and policy issues. The Summer Abroad course will focus on the "roots" of Latinx/Mexican-American identity, allowing students to explore and reflect upon some of Mexico's history and culture that has been central to the maintenance and resurgence of Mexican-American/Chicanx identity over time and space.
MAS 317 - Latin American Immigration and the Re-making of the U.S.
Migration is currently re-shaping American cities, families, urban landscapes, rural areas, and politics, and altering the nation's racial and cultural make up. In response, societal attitudes shift and are re-imagined. This course examines the quasi-permanent presence of undocumented immigrants in the United States in an age of global movements, how this confounds established spatial orders that have conventionally defined nationhood, and the ensuing struggles for belonging and place within 'a nation of immigrants course will focus on the homeland that the vast majority of immigrants in the U.S. come from, including traditional and "new" immigrant sending states.

Plastic Surgery in Alexandria, LA
Plastic Surgery Associates of Lafayette performs a wide range of plastic surgery procedures for those who are looking for a change to their appearance in Alexandria, LA.
A large part of our society obsesses over their physical looks. Many people are not happy with the looks or structure of their bodies as they are. Often these people look to the services of a professional to help them with their personal struggles.
What is Plastic Surgery?
Plastic surgery is the altering of one's appearance through surgery, manipulation, or adjusting the physical looks of the patient. This could involve a skin lift, tummy tuck or rhinoplasty.
Each of these procedures has their own precautions and projected outcomes. The type of service that we deliver at Plastic Surgery Associates covers all of these aspects to assure that our clients receive realistic results.
How is Plastic Surgery Performed?
For a lift, the excess skin is normally removed with minimal incisions. We use Botox® when the patient would like more volume. This is achieved by injecting the area with a solution. Both of these procedures are normally done on an outpatient basis and are minimally invasive techniques.
During your initial consultation, your surgeon will:
- Review your complete medical history (including past and current medications)
- Evaluate the part of your body that you want treated
- Give recommendations
- Answer any questions you have

On March 4, Sheriff Donny Youngblood of Kern County, California, said that the Obama administration's attempt to ban M855 "green-tip" ammunition seems like an attempt "to create a problem that doesn't actually exist."
He also stated that "bad guys" are not using M855 ammunition to shoot cops.
According to local ABC News affiliate 23 KERO, Youngblood said that under a different scenario–i.e. "if bad guys were using those [rounds] to shoot cops"–he would be "the first in line saying, 'Hey, we've got to do something.'" But that is not the case.
Youngblood stressed that while there are numerous rounds that can penetrate an officer's bulletproof vest, the mere existence of such rounds does not, in and of itself, justify a ban. That is especially true for the M855 round, which is widely used for target shooting, not attacks on police.
Most of Kern County falls into House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy's (R-CA) district, the 23rd. McCarthy released the following comment on the proposed ban: "If the administration and the ATF continue in this illegitimate path, the House will keep all options on the table, including potential legislation, to ensure this proposal is not implemented."

The New York Knicks have had a very busy offseason but apparently, they are not finish improving their roster. According to the latest NBA rumors, the Knicks are interested in acquiring Greg Monroe from the Milwaukee Bucks to provide backup for Kristaps Porzingis and Joakim Noah.
Sam Amico of Amico Hoops cited league sources that the Knicks are among several teams that might go after Monroe. He noted that New York is looking for a third team to complete the deal but they may eventually wait until December to pull it off.
ALSO READ: NBA Rumors: Celtics still looking to pull off blockbuster trades for Blake Griffin and Russell Westbrook
The Bucks have made Monroe available this offseason despite having a good season statistically. However, he was not a great fit in Milwaukee as the team missed the postseason and failed to build up on a promising 2014-15 season.
Meanwhile, the Knicks are looking to make the playoffs this season with their new look roster consisting stars such as Carmelo Anthony, Kristaps Porzingis, Derrick Rose and Joakim Noah. The addition of Monroe insures roster stability just in case Porzingis or Noah goes down with an injury.
New York added players, such as Willy Hernangomez, Mindaugas Kuzminskas and Maurice Ndour, but they have never played in a single regular season game in the NBA. They will need time to adjust which makes Monroe a good fit for them.
According to Will Joseph of Hoops Rumors, the Knicks do not have a trade chip available to match Monroe's salary of $17 million. The can still make a deal by December when their newly signed players are eligible to be traded.
ALSO READ: NBA Rumors: Carmelo Anthony idolizes JR Smith, to celebrate 'shirtless' if Knicks win a championship
However, Monroe might not be with the Bucks once training camp starts. Besides the Knicks, the San Antonio Spurs has also been linked with the 26-year-old center. They are also looking for an additional frontcourt presence because of the retirement of Tim Duncan.

Mullen Lowe, a Brazilian advertising agency, one of the most prestigious commercial marketing agencies in Sao Paulo was founded by Jose Borghi. He has the ability to obtain what he wants even in seemingly adverse conditions.
From the start of his career, he has been involved in important cases. He has done campaigns for Fiat, Honda and the Downs Syndrome Association and many other large companies. His campaigns have won awards both in Brazil and abroad, some of them being for Delta Airlines, Electrolux Vacuum cleaners, American Express and Asia Motors. But these are not the most noteworthy awards he has won. Some most influential would be the 7 London Festival Awards, 11 at the New York Festival, 14 at the Cannes Lions, in France, and 10 Cilo Awards. He has a lot to be proud of in his chosen profession.
Born in Presidente Prudente he attended and graduated from PUC-Campinas University where he studied Advertising and Propaganda. His first job after school was with the Standart Ogilvy ad agency in 1989. It didn't take him long to open his own agency, BorghiErh, with partner Erh Ray. They started the agency with no backing from banks or investors or fairy godmothers. They worked hard and made a success of the business doing all the work themselves in the planning and creating of the ad campaigns.
With their success, Lowe bought the agency, becoming the BorghiLowe Agency. In December of 2015 Erh Ray and Jose split the presidency. The agency has gained even more popularity in the international as well as the domestic market.
The Mullen Lowe Brazil agency and CEO Jose Borghi know that even in a crisis there can be the opportunity for ad agencies to show people that marketing, with good planning and a good strategy, can work for them.

I think you would need to try to perform a best effort read before write in your application. I guess it depends on the amount of traffic for the table. Even then, there is a small race window in that turnaround time.

Top 5 worst US cities for traffic
Looking to get somewhere in 15 minutes? It's not likely in one of these five US cities. The Texas Transporation Institute's (TTI) 2009 Urban Mobility Report, a national report using data from 2007, documents the annual number of hours motorists spent stuck in traffic. ABC News reported that the total amount of time Americans wasted in traffic in 2007 from the TTI study was 4.2 billion hours. That works out to nearly one full work week, or vacation week if you want to look at it that way, for every traveler. Some cities saw some traffic improvements.
But if you're planning to move to one of the top 5 worst US cities for traffic, you might want to stock up on your books on tape, travel snacks, and invest in satellite radio – chances are you'll be spending some "quality" time in your car.
5. San Francisco, Calif.
The Golden Gate City's drivers spent 55 hours stuck in traffic in 2007. San Francisco actually saw a drop in annual hours of delay from 58 to 55 from 2006 to 2007. Forbes puts the worst bottleneck in the San Francisco-Oakland area at Interstate 238 Northbound at Calif. 185/14th St. and Mission Blvd. And travelers will go an average of 19.6 miles per hour in traffic congestion. Seismic upgrades and repairs to the area's Bay Bridge, forcing its closure, increased traffic woes in the fall of 2009 as commuters had to seek alternate routes to San Francisco.

(CBS) — This is a story about how two young children inspired their whole school to reach out and be charitable.
As CBS 2's Jim Williams reports, these kids offer us all a reminder about the value of giving. It's Positively Chicago.
Eva and Isiah Jakobe have learned an important life lesson — at only 9 and 6 years old, respectively.
"On Christmas, you're like, 'presents, presents, presents.' But if you actually give to someone else, it really makes you happy," Eva says.
What's really making the siblings happy now is collecting books, toys and clothes for less fortunate children.
They led a drive at their school, Sacred Heart on Chicago's North Side. Their mother, Stacy, describes what happened: "The kids helped spread the word at school."
"They stood out on the sidewalk and actually took the donations from families coming into school."
Their principal, Nat Wilburn, is proud of them.
"Here's an example of two students who inspired 700 of us to go out and be busy," he says, "making a world that's better for all."
Eva and Isiah ended up with bins of donations, which they and their mother delivered to Cradles to Crayons.
Cradles to Crayons started in Boston 15 years ago and last August opened what it calls a "giving factory" in Logan Square.
"We were founded on the premise that every child deserves to be able to learn, to play and thrive and not to worry about where their clothing and toys will come from," Executive Director Bernard Cherkasov says.
He says the organization tries to make a personal connection to each child who receives the donations.
"We create a customized pack that contains exactly what they need and the color and the size they really, really want," he says.
Stacy Jakobe says Isiah and Eva can't wait to return.
"As soon as they've outgrown something, there's this twinkle in their eye because now they can give it to Cradles to Crayons," the mother says.
Eva's 3rd grade class will be going to Cradles to Crayons next week to volunteer.
Cradles to Crayons welcomes the opportunity to help children learn the joy of giving.

National Treasure
The world of showbiz mourned over the legendary British TV Presenter Sir Bruce Forsyth, who had recently died at the age of 89. Sir Bruce Forsyth was a national treasure, whose career spanned for over 75 years.
Born in Edmonton, Middlesex, he made his first debut on stage at ages just 14 as Boy Bruce, the Mighty Atom, at the Theatre Royal, Bilston.
Sir Bruce Forsyth by Barry Ernest Fantoni- National Portrait Gallery-London
Bruce continued his stage work for the next sixteen years and he soon became a household name in the mid-1950s, having been asked to present the ITV series Sunday Night, at the London Palladium, one of the most renowned stages in the world.
After He then went on to host many other game shows, including, co-presenting Strictly Come Dancing from 2004 to 2013.
The Secret behind Bruce's Shows
Apart from Bruce's charming charisma and his memorable talent, there was a real importance of venue choice. No matter how lavish or glamorous a TV show is, they still have to deliver an unforgettable experience for attendees.
Theatres in London
The London Palladium is a Grade II listed West End Theatre that seats around 2,273 delegates. From a variety of televised performances to stars who have played there, it is arguably one of the most famous theatres in London, especially for Musical shows.
The effects of venues play an essential part in audience experience. When you choose to host your conference, presentation or meeting in an iconic building, such as the London Palladium, you tap into that special magic that gives your event a touch of theatrical glamour.
"Venues play an important part in ensuring strong and vibrant sporting and cultural development" Darcey Bussell Strictly Come Dancing TV judge.

The ONL course design builds on open, collaborative and networked learning practices and explores how a problem-based learning format can be utilized in an online learning environment.
In developing ONL we are drawing on the ideas and pedagogical frameworks of Problem-Based Learning (PBL) and Networked learning. The key learning principles behind PBL that we try to put into play is to view learning as a constructive, collaborative, self-directed and contextual process (Dolmans et.al., 2005). As a part of the design, a model named FISh (Focus, Investigate, Share) is used for individual and group inquiry (Nerantzi & Uhlin, 2012). We believe that using the emerging ideas on Networked learning can be a way forward to design for PBL online. McConnell (2006) suggests that the following pedagogical areas must be addressed when designing networked learning courses:
- Openness in the educational process
- Self-determined learning
- A real purpose in the cooperative process
- A supportive learning environment
- Collaborative assessment of learning
- Assessment and evaluation of the ongoing learning process
By building on the frameworks of PBL and Networked learning, we want to further explore how these frameworks can be utilized to create open, collaborative and online learning environments. An intention in designing the course is to develop a community of practice that can enhance understanding of what personal learning networks and environments can mean and how these can be built. The course is built on the use of freely available social media tools that does not require extensive technical skills to be mastered and implemented.

In October, 2007, Andrew W.K. was invited to DJ after rapper Q-Tip's NYC concert. The show was held at the Grammercy Theater in Manhattan.
Andrew says: "I really liked Q-Tip's rap on the Deee-Lite song, 'Groove Is In The Heart'. His voice has always had a special tone to it, and I was beyond thrilled to be invited to his show." Andrew's friend, the artist Doug Anson, who had joined Andrew on the High-Way Party Cruiser Tour, was also there.

Manager research is ingrained in our DNA.
If you want consultants close to the research,
we're as close as they come.
Our Investment Process
"The only benchmark that you should care about is the one that indicates whether or not you are on track to accomplish your investment objectives." – Butler, Philbrick & Gordillo
Step 1
A Beacon Pointe consultant works hand-in-hand with your Finance/Investment Committee to create an investment policy that reflects your organization's specific situation, encompassing clarity of governance, objectives, and strategies. The Investment Policy Statement is then individually reviewed and approved by our internal Beacon Pointe Investment Committee as appropriate for the client's needs and circumstances.
Step 2
With the Investment Policy Statement in place and a full understanding of your organization's cash flow and spending needs, risk sensitivity, etc., sophisticated techniques are then employed to determine an optimum asset allocation mix to achieve your objectives.
Step 3
Finding the best investment managers in each asset class requires significant effort and focus. Our proprietary research and evaluation process relies on a sound philosophy, rigorous due diligence efforts, and state-of-the art analytical tools. As a Beacon Pointe client, you will have a portfolio of investments drawn from a select group of investment managers on our proprietary Focus List that meet or exceed our strict performance and qualitative criteria.
Step 4
Asset allocation strategies and selection of investment managers are only the initial steps involved with a successful investment plan. Your Beacon Pointe consulting team will regularly review the circumstances and requirements for maintaining a proper asset allocation in line with stated investment policies and continually monitor investment managers in the portfolio to ensure execution of your long-term goals and objectives.
Research and Evaluation of Investment Managers:
Beacon Pointe's most distinguishing characteristic is our depth and breadth of talent and experience in our industry. This has driven us to design our unique and research-intensive methodology in an open architecture environment. Identifying and researching what we believe to be superior investment managers is our core competence. Our manager recommendations are a crucial component of the value-add that we provide to our clients.
Beacon Pointe's recommended asset managers invest for stability and growth, yet are flexible enough to take actions that help achieve clients' goals. They move beyond the constraints of index composition and rigid style characteristics and focus instead on finding what they believe are the best investments for their clients. As a result, they tend to protect capital better than their peers when markets are negative. Often, these managers are not found on brokerage platforms or at huge investment houses.
Our proprietary process relies on a sound philosophy, rigorous due diligence efforts, and state-of-the art analytical tools. It includes the following steps:
Many of our clients are committed to socially responsible and impact or "purposeful" investing, and we work to express these values in their investment policy statements and portfolios. Impact investments are made with the intention to generate measurable social and environmental impact in addition to a financial return. We have extensive experience in this field.
We will work with you to articulate your impact investing goals, creating a strategy that is consistent with your objectives. Implementing and monitoring that strategy, we will constantly search for new ways to express your values.
When researching responsible investing strategies, we employ the same thorough due diligence process that we use for traditional strategies. Each investment manager candidate must meet Beacon Pointe's strict quantitative and qualitative criteria in order to be considered by our Investment Committee. In addition, each candidate is asked to complete an additional questionnaire specific to its firm's responsible investing practice, and we perform an in-depth review of each manager's:
